Separate names with a comma.
From what I've learned so far, the Gen III uses an ECU inside the inverter. To me it looks like there are several discrete CAN Busses (maybe only...
It would be nice to hack that unit, but it stinks that it's CE based. Linux would be a much better choice. Seems like if you are going to invest...
That would be an insanely complex job, if even possible. The inverter design has been drastically changed in the Gen 3 and would not interface to...
I have a big urge to say something lewd here, but it would probably affect my mileage, so I'll just keep it to myself for now... =)
If the duct was blocked it might have triggered the fan to run faster trying in vain to get more air. If it was just the normal fan noise it...
There are literally thousands of factors that can alter mileage, many are not obvious, and they can change from drive-to-drive. What I can tell...
Rare at first, but now they seem to becoming more common. I've repaired several now from 2007-up. Same goes with the cluster display board....
This is over-RPM. The HV ECU controls both MG's tightly and will not allow this. It has highly accurate Sine/Cosine resolvers that not only know...
I've always heard that disabling the TC will endanger the transaxle, but I'm still not sure why. So far the only convincing argument I've heard...
The accelerator pedal is a hall-effect system with double redundancy. If there was *any* problem in the signal due to a loose connector, or...
Yeah, sometimes a small piece of crud gets sucked into the battery fan and can make noises when it runs. I'd open up the ducting and inspect it...
I've been trying to understand why disabling the TC could result in a transaxle failure. So far the only convincing argument I've heard is that...
For most things, just disconnecting the 12v battery for a few minutes will do it. The easiest way is to simply unplug the white +12v connector...
Which one did you get?
350 seems a little "hot" for constant current, especially on a Gen1 pack with possibly weak seals. I'd limit it to 200ma if possible. Do they...
Thanks for the compliments, unfortunately when I did this mod I didn't think of documenting it closely. I can probably draw you a schematic of...
Actually ALL aftermarket HID kits are illegal under federal law. Luckily for most people it's seldom enforced. It's only legal to use FMVSS...
After some careful experimentation, I've found this 36ohm heater can deliver more power for a fast heat. I generally plug into 240v when I'm...
Since I've got a PHEV conversion, I plug in every time I can anyway, so the plug-habit is near automatic. Plugging in powers the Block Heater,...
